Low-Code Development Platforms

Low-code development platforms (LCDP) aim to break down enduring bottlenecks that hamper software development, business process automation, and digital transformation by enabling non-developers to create sophisticated software applications. These solutions abstract out the foundational code and employ powerful graphical UIs to minimize hand coding and widen the circle of stakeholders who can build and refine business workflows and logic.

In this Analyst Insight Video, GigaOm Analyst Matthew Kruczek draws on research he conducted for a pair of GigaOm research reports—the Key Criteria for Evaluating Low-Code Development Platforms and the GigaOm Radar for Low-Code Development Platforms. He presents a detailed decision-making framework for IT leaders, describing the key criteria, evaluation metrics, and emerging technologies that organizations should consider when seeking to adopt an LCDP. He then goes on to describe the findings of the GigaOm Radar report, which provides an in-depth competitive analysis of 10 vendor solutions in the sector.
